You can change this through "Regional and Language Options" in the Control Panel. Once the window opens, click on the "Language" tab and click "Details" under the "Text services and input languages" button.

You might want to have your Windows XP disc on you, as it might ask for it if any additional files need to be copied/installed from the disc.
